Lack's good play means Torts can be comfortable with either goalie in the 'Classic'. Torts' twitter policy made his opinions on corporate gossip clear.Gillis said 'no comment' when asked whether Kesler wants a trade.Kesler said he didn't comment on it, doesn't want to talk about it, & doesn't want other players to talk about it.Luongo, on the other hand, once again, seems to value humour over discretion. Goalie selection for the 'Classic' could be a message to Luongo - to 'get with the program'.

I just want the Aquilini's to march right through the office and fire everyone...unless MG has brainwashed em thinking he has a master plan in place where everything will be taken care by this summer 100% guaranteed.

The only reasonable explanation for this move is that they are in trade talks regarding Luongo and do not want to risk an injury. Otherwise it is a massive insult to Luongo who weathered this storm once before and in a very professional manner.

If this is not the case then MG must go. Enough is enough. Is he trying to get players to ask to be traded instead of being the one to ask them? If so he may get more than he bargained for.

If he trades Luongo for shit then none of this makes any sense at all. Here is hoping he has a respectable trade in the works, not a home run by any stretch but perhaps a respectable hockey trade.

If Pittsburg is going to pull the trigger on Kesler and if they are still not sold on bringing MAF back after this season it would make some sense that they take Luongo for MAF + along with whatever the Kesler deal involves.

It's odd but not unheard of for this franchise. They really must be stupid if they don't realize the shitshow this would cause. Given all the drama around this team the sooner Kesler, Luongo and maybe Edler go the better.

It's the absolute blinders they seem to have on. If nothing else Luongo has earned the right to at least be asked if he wants the game. How could the team not know that this would upset Luongo and how could they not care.

If they did this and there is no trade or injury then MG is the biggest dick.
